Pub Chat with Lorenzo and Stefano: Our take on Milan’s January strategy

Lorenzo and Stefano address AC Milan’s transfer needs in January, while taking a look at the strategy that’s emerging from Igli Tare and co. What should we make of the Niclas Füllkrug signing? And who will be next?

The January window will commence next week, but Milan have already secured their first signing: Niclas Füllkrug. Arriving on a six-month loan with an option to buy, which reportedly is very low, it’s clear that the Rossoneri have gone for a low-cost opportunity.

Equally, as stated by Matteo Moretto this morning, Milan would like their centre-back addition to also be on loan. At the very least an initial loan deal, like Füllkrug. Considering that the Rossoneri are still in the Scudetto race, this strategy can be questioned.

In the latest episode of Pub Chat, Lorenzo and Stefano shared their thoughts on the strategy that is emerging for Milan in January. They echoed the thoughts of many other fans: there are strong doubts regarding the impact these types of signings can have.

I know it is difficult to find striker with high skills for not high amount of money. but I think that apart from Fullkrug there is space for another high quality striker as Andrea Pinamonti. I know that Santiago Gimenez will stay at Milan because of his injury, but may be there is option that Mr Tare will propose Gimenez on loan to Feyenoord for free to end of the season. it is win-win deal for three sides. for AC Milan – because promotion of the player before selling to other club in summer and because they even don’t really want him in the squad. for player – because he could prepare much better to World Cup when will play regulary and perform better. for Feyenoord – they know very well this player. this club knows that Gimenez could support them to achieve more goals on the end of the season.
.
so in this context Pinamonti is very rational option and I think that he could have big influence on the results and the team performance.
.
may be Nkunku also could leave in the winter transfer window.
